PR News You Can Use

1. Social Media Public Relations is so much more than a virtual meet and greet!



2. If your website doesn't speak to you, or to anyone else....your PR professional can rewrite it and GET YOU NOTICED!



3. Pitching in PR means no flyballs...just the occasional flyer!



4. Even the best ideas can die if not heard... Public Relations helps you breathe life into your business or career plan by getting your key messages out!



5. Always promote outside the box because inside is just too crowded!



6. Public Relations is not black and white, but comes in many trendy shades of grey...and all the colors of the rainbow too!



7. Promotion allows for some boasting that you can get away with!



8. Public relations campaigns allow you the power of getting your message out directly, precisely and immediately...now how good is that?





9. Vision in PR is as important as seeing the "E" on the eye chart! Good PR can help you find the "Z" too!



10. A "PRESS RELEASE" doesn't mean overall "FREEDOM FOR ALL MEDIA"!

Facebook and Beacon - What Do You Think Facebook and Beacon - What Do You Think - This landed in my inbox. Any thoughts???? Personally, I think they really overstepped the bounds of maintaining personal privacy with this one. Facebook Signals Changes With Beacon David A. Utter | Staff Writer The ringing outcry against Facebook Beacon, which posted people's online purchases to their friends' News Feeds, led to Facebook altering the program. Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg's aggressive move into referral advertising through the Beacon technology ran into a brick wall of user discontent. After days of complaints that spread throughout the media world, Facebook has changed their Beacon policies. "Users now have more control over the stories that get published to their Mini-Feed and potentially to their friends' News Feeds," the company said. Other details of the changes have been published in the Beacon FAQ available to Facebook members: "If you are logged in to Facebook and visit a Beacon Affiliate, an action you take (like writing a review or purchasing an item), may trigger that website to want to publish a story to Facebook. Before that happens, a notification will display in the lower right corner of your screen. If you click "No Thanks"...no stories or information will be published anywhere on Facebook. If you click "Close" or ignore the story, the story will be sent to Facebook, but not yet published." The previous version of Beacon would go ahead and publish details of a purchase or other conversion activity on a participating website directly to the Facebook user's Mini-Feed, which would then appear on the News Feeds of friends tracking that Mini-Feed. Some people complained that the notification appearing on a Beacon partner site of the pending publication did not appear. Facebook said people were leaving pages before the notification dialogue could be fully displayed, and they have changed the process to confirm the full notification has been shown to the person.
